Sorry if you think I was misleading. Didn't mean to be. Yes you are correct, all the 70 seaters would be converted to 76 seaters. Do you think my premise that Delta management still gets the 717's and pumps and dumps is viable?
In my estimation, what we are really talking about is allowing 70 more 70 seaters versus 76 seaters. This is based on the ability of the company to get more 76 seaters under the current contract after meeting the criteria in my previous post.
